1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,040 Speaker 1: On any given day, there are a number of different 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: diets trending on social media or being aggressively advertised on 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 1: morning TV woul with keto, lemon, deetoks, low carb meal replacements, 4 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 1: diets that may all work initially, but diets that are 5 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 1: rarely sustainable or even health you long term. But when 6 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: you're a dietician like Lann and I, there are a 7 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: couple of diets that do far more harm than good and. 8 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 2: Drive us crazy. 9 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: So today I'm the Nutrition Couch, Leanne and I are 10 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: going to share the diets that we dislike the most 11 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,279 Speaker 1: and share with you why we feel this way. Hi, 12 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 1: I'm Susie Burrow Norlam, and each week we bring you 13 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: the Nutrition Cauch, the biweekly chat and podcast that keeps 14 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: you up to date on everything you need to know 15 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: in the world of nutrition, as well as the diets 16 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: that we dislike the most. Today, we're going to discuss 17 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: the very easy ways you can make sure that you're 18 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: getting enough calcium if you prefer to skip the dairy 19 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: in your diet. And our question is one that I 20 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: really really like. 21 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 2: It's all about. 22 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: Protein powder and what are you supposed to do with it? 23 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: So Leanne I have noticed that Mia is eating a 24 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: lot of different foods. I've also noticed that Mea doesn't 25 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: seem to care less about how clean she is when 26 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: she's eating. Do you want to give us a little 27 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: update on the MIAs solid's journey where you're up to and. 28 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 2: Little Mimi is also walking as well. So very proud 29 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 2: mum moment for us this week. But yeah, she tries 30 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 2: to have some good diversity in a diet. Thanks for 31 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 2: a dietitian mum. Where what Oh, she's thirteen months now, 32 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 2: so she's a good eater. I've just stopped my breastfeeding journey. 33 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 2: She's self weaned. She got really sick. She had a 34 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 2: really bad fever for about four or five days and 35 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: just didn't want a bar of it and kind of 36 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: self weaned herself and then didn't want anymore after that. 37 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 2: So I thought, oh well, and I tried to give 38 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 2: her a little bit of milk or even I tried 39 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 2: a little bit of even formula because I sort of 40 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 2: was of that belief or maybe she's not going to 41 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: eat enough, and she just kind of picked up her 42 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 2: intake and she doesn't really have anything like she'll have 43 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: a bit of milk about it. To a smoothie or something, 44 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 2: but she's really like water's really her own given fluid. 45 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: She's actually picked up her intaked meal. So she eats 46 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 2: three pretty solid meals a day and probably has one 47 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: sort of snack. But yeah, she's a big bean and 48 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: legume lover. She loves her protein. Vegetables were still working on. 49 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 2: She's very decisive about what she wants, Susie. She picks 50 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: it up and throws it off her tray table she 51 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 2: doesn't like it. And she also she's willing to try anything, 52 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 2: but if she doesn't like it on the first bite, 53 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: she's like not like, won't go near it, will wave 54 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 2: her hand like no, no, like. She basically tells you 55 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 2: if she wants something or not. Lives off yogurt and 56 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: fruit like favorite things in the whole world. 57 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: How's it tummy though? Because I see the foods you 58 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: give her, like so many beans and stuff. Now, one 59 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: of my little boys still has a degree of for 60 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: toos mal absorption, and you know, certainly because they were dieticians' kids. 61 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: I always fed the massive amounts of vegetables. And I've 62 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 1: got a great nanny who's been with her since my 63 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: boys were six months old. And she still makes this 64 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: massive dish of vegetables when she looks after them, and 65 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: they have sort of a huge volume, which means that 66 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: their bowels are very regular. But I just remember having 67 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: small children, like the volume of pooh is just enormous, 68 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: and I look at what you feed me are and 69 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: I think Jesus, that kid must be poop and NonStop 70 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: on a. 71 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: Day occasionally to a day. But she has things like 72 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: corn and occasionally black beans. They do, like I do, 73 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 2: find the minute happy. So some of them aren't completely absorbed, 74 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 2: which we know from a five perspective as normal. But no, 75 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 2: she just doesn't get diarrhea or anything like that. I 76 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 2: sort of max out her bean intake kind of like 77 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 2: max the corner of a cup of day. Like I don't. 78 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 2: I don't give her legumes of three meals a day. 79 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 2: It's only ever one if that. And she probably has 80 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: legumes soy four or five times a week a couple 81 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: of tablespoons max, because I do find that she gets 82 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: a little bit extra fluffy. 83 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: If I give her too many hats off. She's got 84 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: it out of steel, that baby. She's a good girl, 85 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: all right. An well, moving on to all things mea 86 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: and her digestive habits. Today, we're going to talk about 87 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: diets because there's always a lot of different diets around 88 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: and one of the things that comes up when you 89 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: speak to nutrition clients, which both you and I see, 90 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: is that you'll do what we call the diet history. 91 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: So we'll spend quite a lot of time in the 92 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: initial consultation chatting to our clients about what diets in 93 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: particular that they've done before. Now, sometimes this information comes 94 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: through very quickly, or a client will tell me all 95 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: the programs they've tried and what's worked well, And we're 96 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: asking that information because we want to get an idea 97 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: of the level of perhaps the dietary restriction in the 98 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: past or in some cases, Lee and I'm interested to 99 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: know if something's worked particularly well. You know, if I've 100 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: had a client who's responded particularly well to say, meal 101 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: replacement program or a different program before, it gives me 102 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: a lot of information about what's perhaps going on with 103 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: their metabolism. And there are you know, many diets out there. 104 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: There's Keto, there's weight Watchers, there's Jenny Craig, you know, 105 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: name them all, and indeed, many a diet client has 106 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: done all of the different diets at some point in 107 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: time with varying results. But the one diet that I 108 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: have the most disdainful out of all the diets across 109 00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: my path is diets that promote severe calorie restriction, so 110 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: that for me is anything less than a thousand calories. 111 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: So there's certainly one that does the rounds called the 112 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: hat CG diet, which is about five hundred calories per 113 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: day or more frequently, more recently, we've seen a lot 114 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: of eight hundred calorie diet plans, and I cannot tell 115 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: you how frustrated I get when I have a ninety 116 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: or one hundred kilo female who comes and has religiously 117 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: been following and an eight hundred calorie diet. So, to 118 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: give our listeners a bit of insight, what an eight 119 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: hundred calorie diet is, it's basically at least half what 120 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 1: the average adult would just require on a day to 121 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: day basis to be healthy and get their nutrition, So 122 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: it's half their intake. In terms of food, it would 123 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: look like a couple of boiled eggs and maybe a 124 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: slice of toast. It would look like a tuna salad 125 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 1: for lunch, and it would look like a piece of 126 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: boiled fish or chicken with vegetables for dinner, maybe a snack, 127 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: maybe a piece of fruit, or it's a more handful 128 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: of nuts. So it is very, very restricted, and like 129 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: all diets, when people start to follow it, and they 130 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: follow it religiously, they often lose a couple of kilos 131 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: and then what happens in my experience with that diet 132 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: in particular, is the weight loss just completely plateaus, and 133 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: I think metabolically it just does so much damage to people, 134 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: both cognitively restricting to that extent fighting the natural hunger 135 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: or being able to restrict their diet all day and 136 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: then inevitably giving up and binge eating at nights or 137 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: on the weekends. And there is no evidence in the 138 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: scientific literature to show that a five hundred or eight 139 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: hundred calorie diet has any longevity in terms of long 140 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: term weight loss, in keeping it off, or metabolic benefits. 141 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 1: So if we look at low calorie diets of the 142 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: scientific evidence, when you look at the five and two 143 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: with two low calorie days on non consecutive days, indeed 144 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: there is evidence to show that it can be supportive 145 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: of slow but sustainable loss because on the other days 146 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: of that regime, people are not restricted. But the fact 147 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: that there's people out there spooking an eight hundred calorie 148 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: diet with no ramifications or repercussions for the metabolic consequences 149 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: of being so restricted for so long, I just just 150 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: gobsnacked that it's even allowed to happen. And I just 151 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: think I saw it, And the reason I want to 152 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: talk about it today was that I saw it just 153 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: with another kind of mine last week, and she had 154 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: been you know, brutally making herself stick to this eight 155 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: hundred calorie diet for weeks and weeks and weeks because 156 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: it's you know, currently all over the media, and she 157 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: was getting nowhere except basically starving herself and you know, 158 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: doing more damage, which now I have to sort of 159 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: what we call diet rehab her, which is basically retrain 160 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: her body to burn calories again. And I just think, seriously, like, 161 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: let's be just really honest as dieticians here, there is 162 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: no evidence for an eight hundred calorie diet. It's just 163 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: the latest in the diet book doing the rounds, and 164 00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: like all of them, it will come and it will go. 165 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: But I just think it does far more damage than 166 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: good and I'm sure there's many listeners listening who bought 167 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: the book who were doing it, but really they're still 168 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: in the same place they were and probably metabolically worse 169 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: off for it. 170 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 2: And that's the thing I think when you know, celebrities 171 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: and doctors and that sort of thing without the proper 172 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 2: science and training around nutrition right diet books, and they 173 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: become very very popular. People buy them because of the popularity, 174 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: not because of the science behind them. And as dietitians, 175 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: we believe in evidence based science. So there are absolutely 176 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: some diets that show us from a fat loss perspective 177 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: that you know they are superior, and we do know 178 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 2: that when you match together you know, the different calorie 179 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 2: loads and the weight loss and that sort of thing. 180 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 2: Any diet will work, whether it's kida, whether it's low car, 181 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 2: whether it's high carb, where it's high protein. It's just 182 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 2: matching that right diet to the right client. But too 183 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 2: large of a calorie deficit will impact us metabolically. So 184 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 2: I'm like USUZI I don't love something like an eight 185 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 2: hundred calorie diet unless it is for a specific medical purpose, 186 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 2: something like you know, an O fast diet pre surgery, 187 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 2: where we have to shrink down the liver. We used 188 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 2: to use that routinely in the hospitals when larger clients 189 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: and larger bodies used to need you know, emergent surgery 190 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 2: or surgery that was sort of unavoidable from an anesthetic risk. 191 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 2: They were a very high risk for that surgery in general, 192 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 2: So we would use something like an eight hundred thousand 193 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 2: calorie optifast diet where it was just shakes, it was 194 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 2: very tightly controlled, it was very low carbohydrate, the glycogen 195 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 2: stores would come out of the liver. It would be 196 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 2: more effective for their health long term, but even that, 197 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 2: it's very short term, like we'd be using them maximum 198 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 2: kind of two three weeks for most of the clients. 199 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 2: So I don't love the also the popularity of this 200 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 2: new eight hundred calorie diet like you, because there isn't 201 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 2: good research behind it, and it also metabolically is going 202 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 2: to impact you negatively long term as well, I believe. 203 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 2: And the one I really disliked the most, SUSI, is 204 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 2: really those kind of detox fluid related diets, like I've 205 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 2: seen a few of them, like the you know, the 206 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 2: cold pressed juices, like the juicing diet for like five 207 00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 2: days we do nothing but drink raw juices. Essentially, I 208 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 2: think I at least like the most about these diets. 209 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 2: Sure they're going to promote rapid weight loss, but a 210 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 2: lot of that is just waterweight loss and muscle loss 211 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 2: as well. And I actually had a wonderful diet tish 212 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 2: on my other podcast, LeeAnne Wood Nutrition, and she worked 213 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 2: in a metabolic testing lab and she saw it routinely 214 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: time and time again. They always did case studies on 215 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 2: these clients of hers, where they would go away. They 216 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 2: would do this hardcoreed detox type diets for two weeks 217 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 2: or these juicing type diets for two weeks, because clients 218 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 2: would say to her, look, I'm getting good results. They 219 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 2: might get safe for example, two three kilos off in 220 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 2: five weeks or something, and they'd say, look, it's just 221 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 2: not fast enough. I want more. So they'd go away. 222 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 2: They'd do these diets. They'd re scan with her, and 223 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 2: she would show them the impact of how much muscle 224 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 2: mass that they'd lost even during a short period like 225 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: one or two weeks. And from a metabolic perspective, they 226 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 2: worked out like how much fuel your body requires and 227 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 2: how much less that you get when you drop that 228 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 2: amount of muscle mass as well. So I've never been 229 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 2: a fan of those like detoxing juice type diets because 230 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 2: I just think, if you want a detox, just clean 231 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 2: up your diet, like get rid of the crap, cut 232 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 2: down on the caffe and cut down on the alcohol. 233 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 2: Eat more vegetables. That's as much of a detox as 234 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 2: your body needs. You don't need to go and drink, 235 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: you know, three four liters of lemon water a day 236 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 2: to take all of these pills and powders and drink 237 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 2: all of this green juice. Like you can actually eat 238 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 2: real good quality of food as long as the focus 239 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 2: is on nutrition and not I guess detoxing and low calories. 240 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 2: So that's probably one of my most hated ones because 241 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 2: of the impacts, like you're losing body fats some but 242 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 2: you're mostly just using water weight and you're losing muscle mass, 243 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 2: which is going to impact you metabolically more negatively long term. 244 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 2: So that's probably my most hated diet, and I. 245 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: Think the best way I can think of describing it 246 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,719 Speaker 1: in all of them, whether it's you know, the keto bar, 247 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: you know shake one that they do with just vegetables 248 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 1: whether it's the eight hundred calorie diet, whether it's the hCG. Initially, 249 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: that weight is just basically depleting the straws that are 250 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: already there. So anyone would get a couple of kilos 251 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: from cutting you know, cutting that down, whether it's five hundred, 252 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: eight hundred calories, whatever the regime. But the difference is 253 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: and when it comes to burning fat, because if you 254 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: think of the body as a machine and you want 255 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 1: to actually burn the fat off and as opposed to 256 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: waste away the muscles and starve it off, is that 257 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: if you've got no hunger after a couple of weeks, 258 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: that's a sign that your body is basically in that 259 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: shutdown mode, and any weight that you're losing is muscle 260 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: mass and starvation versus a proper fat loss plan. Whereas 261 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: we're working to teach the body to burn better, so 262 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: that is, to actually fuel with the right amounts of 263 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: food at the right time, get hungrier, put the amounts 264 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: of carbohydrate and prosion in there, and basically teach the 265 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: body to burn better over time, as opposed to just 266 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 1: starve the weight off, which is what's going on with most, 267 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: if not all of these programs. It's just comes down 268 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: to somebody wanting to make a quick buck, usually with 269 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: a new title for basically the same thing, which is 270 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: low carb ketotype products with vegetables and very low calories. 271 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 2: So try it very very carefully. You've want right, We're 272 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 2: moving on to our client case study of the week. 273 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 2: So this is something that we see again and again 274 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 2: and again, Susie, particularly because we are both fat lost dietitians, 275 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: and when you're working with a calorie deficit, even though 276 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 2: it may be mild, it is harder to get in 277 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 2: some of our dietary nutrients. So calcium is a big one. 278 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 2: We have a lot of our ladies who just aren't 279 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 2: meeting the right amount of dietary calcium in their diet, 280 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 2: particularly as they get older, and particularly because I feel 281 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 2: like it's would you say, almost trendy to like not 282 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 2: have dairy these days, Like the amount of clients I 283 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 2: have who are having oat milk lattes and almond milk 284 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 2: in their coffees. We're just not having as much dairy 285 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: for whatever reason, is what we you know, previously needed to. 286 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 2: So we wanted to have a bit of a chat 287 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 2: about calcium today and particularly how to get it in 288 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 2: if you don't eat dairy. So if you're a plant 289 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 2: based e, you're a vegetarian, or you just simply don't 290 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 2: like dairy. We wanted to chat about why calcium was important, 291 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 2: so I think we always need to start by saying, 292 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: you know, what is it and why is it important? 293 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 2: So calcium is a big micronutrient within our diet that 294 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: we need to consume regularly because it helps to build strong, 295 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 2: healthy bones. So I think a lot of people understand 296 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 2: the impacts of calcium on our bones, but it also 297 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 2: actually helps to keep our heart and our muscles healthy, 298 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 2: and it also plays a small role in things like 299 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 2: blood clotting, muscle contraction, nerve function as well, so it's 300 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 2: not all just about the bones. Calcium actually plays a 301 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 2: key role in many of the bodily processes. But I 302 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: think what the most important part about calcium is, and 303 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 2: what a lot of people don't understand, is that ninety 304 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 2: nine percent of it in the body is actually found 305 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 2: in the bones. The remaining one percent is found in 306 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 2: our bloodstream. So when we're not eating enough calcium, because 307 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: so much of it is stored in our bones, the 308 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 2: body will actually pull what it needs from the body, 309 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 2: so it will pull it out of the bones. And 310 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 2: that's particularly important as you're going through these big life 311 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: stages like in your teen years when you're growing, if 312 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 2: you're not eating enough calcium, your body's going to pull 313 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 2: it from your bones. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, if you're 314 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 2: not eating enough, the body or the baby that needs 315 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: it will take it from your bones. So that's why 316 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 2: people end up at risk or having osteoporosis because of 317 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 2: poor or reduced bone when density, it's because you're not 318 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 2: eating enough dietary calcium, whether that's from dairy or other foods, 319 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 2: and the body is actually taking what it needs from 320 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 2: the body stores. So it's very important that we get it. 321 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 2: The average adult requires about one thousand milligrams of calcium 322 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 2: every day. That's including pregnancy and breastfeeding. Now, once you 323 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 2: reach over the age of fifty, your needs increase for 324 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 2: a female up to thirteen hundred milligrams a day, and 325 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 2: I think it's once you're over seventy miles and females 326 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 2: need thirteen hundred milligrams a day, So that is a 327 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 2: lot of calcium. Like, what's that four plus servings a 328 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 2: day of just daring. 329 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: It's a lot. It's really difficult to reach, you know, 330 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: even if you have dairy, it's really difficult to reach. 331 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 2: And if you don't, it's even harder. 332 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: So you really do need to know the superfoods across 333 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: the board. Let alone, if you're cutting back on dairy, 334 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: it might be a bit lactose and tolerant or just 335 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: you know, don't like it very much. And then if 336 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: you have a client, as you know, who doesn't like 337 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: plant milk either, you think, how am I going to 338 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: get anywhere close to this? Keeping it mind, the body 339 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: will absorb better of what's available, you know what I mean. 340 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: So they're guidelines, but you know, probably if you're getting 341 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: eight hundred, you're probably going to really absorb well and 342 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: get close to what you need. But it's having some 343 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: serves which have got a decent dose, and specifically for 344 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: those women who don't have dairy, knowing where else you 345 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: can get it from. 346 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 2: So I think some of our favorite sources as dietitians. 347 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 2: Tofu's got to be one of my favorite sources. So 348 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 2: tofu can be fortified with calcium. It's a soy bean 349 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 2: based and it's got roughly I think about one hundred 350 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: grams of tofu, which is a standard serve, is about 351 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 2: three hundred milligrams of calcium, which is actually a really 352 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 2: great serving of calcium. So tofu I really think is 353 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 2: a big superfood. I think it's really great for that 354 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 2: soy based particularly if you're going through peri or metopause. 355 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 2: We know soy can be really helpful for that stage 356 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 2: of life as well. And it's also got some calcium 357 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 2: in it, which we love. Unhold Tarhini is a really 358 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 2: interesting one, SUSI. It's not just normal tarhini. So tarhini 359 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 2: we know is ground sesame seeds. We want it on 360 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 2: the whold. It's actually one of the richest sources of calcium. 361 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 2: It's my little superfood sneaking that I add in for 362 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 2: a lot of clients, whether I put it on like 363 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 2: sourdough as a spread, or whether I add it into smoothies. 364 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 2: So a tablespoon of Unhold tarhini gives us two hundred 365 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 2: milligrams of calcium. That's close to twenty percent of our 366 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 2: daily amount. So that's a really awesome option. I have 367 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 2: a really great salad dressing. Salad dressing recipe I used 368 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,360 Speaker 2: with Unhold tarhini miso, a little bit of lemon juice 369 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 2: and a splash of soy sauce as well. That makes 370 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 2: a delicious, really luck umamie type flavored salad dressing. It's 371 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 2: absolutely delicious. So using that as a salad dressing, using 372 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 2: it as part of a dip, you can add it 373 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 2: into like a homice type recipe, put it into a 374 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 2: smoothie as well. It's a really really good one to 375 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 2: add in and a lot of people aren't aware of that. 376 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 2: We also know that the darker our green vegetables, the 377 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 2: higher amount of calcium that's in it, but we also 378 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 2: need to be aware of some of that calcium isn't 379 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 2: fully absorbed. It's just not absorbed by the body as 380 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 2: easily as what it is from some of our other 381 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 2: calcium sauces. Now, some of our dried fruits, figs and 382 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 2: dried apricots, they're sort of my go tos for some 383 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 2: of my clients. I love saying to them, have a 384 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 2: handful of figs, dried apricots, a couple of roasted chickpeas, 385 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,959 Speaker 2: and some almonds, because we know some of our dried fruits, 386 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 2: our legumes, and our almonds also have quite good amounts 387 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 2: of dietary calcium in there as well, So I think 388 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 2: sousing the most important part. If you're not a dairy drinker, 389 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 2: you choose not to, you don't like it. Whatever, the 390 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,479 Speaker 2: reason that diversity in your diet is so important, we 391 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 2: need to have really focusing on sort of those protein 392 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 2: intakes as well. You know, we know our bony fish 393 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 2: and seafood has some good calcium in it as well, 394 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 2: and particularly things like our legumes. Like you need to 395 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 2: have a well balanced, well rounded diet, and if you're 396 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 2: not getting that in, there is no way that you're 397 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 2: going to achieve one thousand to thirteen hundred milligrams of 398 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 2: calcium in your diet. If you're somebody that is very 399 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 2: selective in what they eat, you're a bit of a 400 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 2: quote unquote picky eater. You don't like beans and legumes, 401 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 2: you don't have much fruits, you don't really eat nuts, 402 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,199 Speaker 2: you're not a big veggie eater. I would absolutely encourage 403 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 2: you to chat to your dietarian or doctor and potentially 404 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,239 Speaker 2: supplement because it is very important thing to get in. 405 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 2: And I do know a couple of friends who have 406 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 2: needed full root canals because they haven't had enough dietary 407 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 2: calcium in their body. 408 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, because we don't often see the bone effects until 409 00:18:59,080 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: much later in life. 410 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 2: Tee. 411 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 1: There sounds like even your nails and your teeth. A 412 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,880 Speaker 1: couple of my favorites, of course. There we've spoken about 413 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: it before. There is a tuna that does have a 414 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: massive whack of like eight hundred milligrams of galcium in. 415 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 2: It, unfortunately just on the taste. Right, there's a couple. 416 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: There's a couple you know that you can mix. You know, 417 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 1: there's one with a sauce. 418 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,439 Speaker 2: Oh no, I can't do it. I tried it so 419 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 2: many times. I can't do it. 420 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: Yea, it's all right. Some of my clients don't mind. 421 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 2: You know what actually is quite good, the yopro perform 422 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 2: range is actually a higher amount of calcium. I put 423 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,239 Speaker 2: a client onto that the other day. That's actually got 424 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 2: a really good but it is very so. 425 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 1: Okay for community service, there is a tuna that has 426 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: some calcium in it, and if you like it, it 427 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: can be a good addition. Don't be swayed by Lean's 428 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: personal tuna preferences and pink salmon and red salmon in 429 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: the tin with the bones very high. You're going to 430 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: get two three hundred milligrams in. 431 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 2: That and sardines as well. So if you don't like. 432 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: The calcium in rich tuna, you can have the salmon 433 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 1: with the bones. Oh just to tea spoon or to 434 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: a table spoon or to a unhold taina and you're 435 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: gonna get a massive dose because you should never. We 436 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: should also Saylien, you should never supplement with calcium until 437 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: you've spoken to a medical professional because it can be contraindicated. 438 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: So it's not like the more the better, so definitely 439 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: check that with your doctor or dietian before you go 440 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: and buy calcium supplements and Eilean don't love them in 441 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: high dose. I tend to try and get a bit 442 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: more through food and maybe a lower dose supplement as 443 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: part of the dietary intake, rather than having you know, 444 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: a thousand, eight hundred milligrams in one hit from a 445 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: supplementary form, because it's never as good as it is 446 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: in the natural food, So keep that in mind as well. 447 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: If you can get a bit more through your diet, 448 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: that's a really good starting point. 449 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 2: I'll just shout out. One of my favorite snack choices 450 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 2: is roasting up some chickpeas or some broad beans or 451 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 2: even at a marmae beans those legumes, you're gonna get 452 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 2: a really good lack of dietary calcium as well if 453 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 2: you're not eating dairy. So really focusing on snacks but 454 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 2: also main meals as well, I think people forget about 455 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 2: snacks where you can actually get a good amount of 456 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 2: dietary calcium as well. 457 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,439 Speaker 1: And I like those little at a marmae individuals are 458 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: one thirty gram tins you can put because a lot of 459 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 1: people go for like kidney beans or four bean mix 460 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: in a salad, but I love those at a mammae 461 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: ones you can now get from edgel I think, and 462 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,040 Speaker 1: then you could do that with a tahini dressing and 463 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: you get a nice high calcium salad at lunchtime. 464 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 2: With some duart green leafy very nice top it off and. 465 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: No calcium enriched too. 466 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: Now really inn okay. 467 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: So for our weekly listener question, I like this one 468 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: because I think it will resonate with a lot of 469 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: people who have also some protein powder in the cupboard, 470 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: and one of our listeners has said, I've got some 471 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: protein powder. What am I supposed to do with it? 472 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: Which i't thought was fantastic because if you're not overly familiar, 473 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: you may know that people use it and may have 474 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,239 Speaker 1: it after the gym and what exactly for it what 475 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: it's for So in summary, basically, protein powder is just 476 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: a concentrated form of the protein you get in food. 477 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: So if you have a glass of milk, you get 478 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 1: about ten grams of protein. If you have a sort 479 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: of one hundred grams a chicken breast, you get twenty 480 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: to thirty grams, and so in you know, a heap 481 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: tablespoon of say one hundred percent way protein, which is 482 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: just concentrated milk protein, you get that similar amount. So 483 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: it's just a concentrated way to get a high dose 484 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: of protein. Now myself, people use it in different ways. 485 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: So I personally, if I've got some old time to 486 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,719 Speaker 1: bake with it, so I bake quite frequently if I'm 487 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: doing muffins for the kids or banana bread, and I'll 488 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: stick some of it in there. But a lot of 489 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: my clients will generally use it with smoothies. So if 490 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: you're making a SMOOTHI leand that's got a plant based 491 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 1: mealk or milk in it, yogurt, some fruit, it still 492 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: tends to be a little bit low protein wise compared 493 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: to a meal, so I may committ about ten fifteen, 494 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: and really we want meals to have about twenty thirty 495 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: grams of protein, particularly for women in those perimenopausal and 496 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,159 Speaker 1: menopause all years. So having sort of a tablespoon and 497 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: adding that twenty grams of protein straighting can just be 498 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: a really easy way to bump up dietary protein intake. 499 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: So that's basically the most common way that I use 500 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: it with my clients, or if I do have some. 501 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: I don't think it's necessary. I don't think everyone needs it. 502 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 1: I think it can be a convenient product, particularly if 503 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 1: you're a smoothie slash drink lover, and of course for 504 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: people who are going to the gym or looking at 505 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: ways to have a quick and easy breakfast on the 506 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: go or gain some lean muscle tissue, or maybe you 507 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 1: know that's a quick and easy meal after the gym 508 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: if you don't have time, certainly you can use them 509 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: like that as well. I'm most commonly using with my athletes, 510 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: in particular football players and young athletes who are trying 511 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: to gain tissue and grow quickly as a convenient meal, 512 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: but for the average person. There's certainly ways of it 513 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: you don't need it, but yeah, they're the most common 514 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:11,199 Speaker 1: ways that I use it. 515 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm like, you know, I would really use it 516 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 2: for the majority of my clients. I'd probably say sixty 517 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 2: eighty to seventy percent of my clients whose goals are 518 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 2: fat loss are using a protein powder, not because they 519 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 2: can't eat enough of it, but because in certain recipes 520 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 2: where they might just want some music or some cereal 521 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 2: or you know, as you said, it's smoothie or a 522 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 2: bit of like avocado on toast, we just need to 523 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 2: boost the overall protein of that meal, so we'll use 524 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 2: something simple like a protein powder, particularly if they don't 525 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 2: like yogurt or they're like I really just don't want 526 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 2: to have eggs with every single one of my meals, 527 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 2: which I don't blame them, So I use it to 528 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 2: boost the overall content of a meal. And like you, 529 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 2: if I've got clients whose goals are around rowing, getting stronger, 530 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 2: gaining some lean muscle mass, and say, for example, they 531 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 2: finish the gym, then they've got an hour commute to work, 532 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 2: but then their breakfast isn't or they've already had breakfast 533 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 2: and lunch isn't for three hours. I will get them 534 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 2: to have something simple like a protein shake and a 535 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 2: banana or something to tie them over. It gives them 536 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 2: that refueling capability after their workout, but then they've got 537 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 2: multiple ols until they're having their next meal. So we 538 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 2: can use it more as a snack, but I don't 539 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 2: tend to unless they really do have goals around strength 540 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 2: and muscle gain. So yeah, I think you're pretty much 541 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 2: hit the nail on the head. It's a pretty simple question. 542 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 2: You don't need it. You could definitely use it in 543 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 2: multiple ways. You can bake with it, you can add 544 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 2: it two recipes or as part of a meal, or 545 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,959 Speaker 2: you can have it as a snack itself. I wouldn't 546 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 2: say that protein powder is a meal. It's definitely just 547 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 2: a snack or to tie you over and tool your 548 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 2: next meal. We can actually eat enough protein within our 549 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 2: diet we don't need a protein powder, but it can 550 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 2: be a very convenient way, particularly if you are traveling 551 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 2: and you don't want to take like a double protein 552 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,239 Speaker 2: yoga with you will take your chicken, broccoli, whatever with 553 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 2: you on a plane. You can just take a protein 554 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 2: powder and nut bar and maybe a piece of food 555 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 2: or something you can kind of get in a good 556 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: balance of some macro and micro nutrients there. 557 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't have so many people walk hereund with 558 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: their chicken and broccoli. I've noticed it the airport lately, 559 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: But each to their own. When you said that about 560 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 1: adding it, yeah, because if you go to say a 561 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: hotel brad first, and it's hard to get protein rich options, 562 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: you could like add a little bit into the yoga 563 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: that they're serving and stuff like that, just to make 564 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: sure you've got that nutrient. So it can be really 565 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: quite a strategic product to take when traveling actually, just 566 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: to get that protein. I've got a couple of clients 567 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 1: doing some hikes at the moment and they're certainly using 568 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 1: that to add to their milk and long life milk 569 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: in the morning, so they can get that protein through 570 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: their oats. So that's another good way to use it, 571 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 1: all right, Leanne, Well, that brings us to the end 572 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: of the Nutrition Couch for another week.
